International record producer/recording artiste Rvssian says he can’t wait for the world to hear the new music he’s been working on.
“I can’t wait for the world to hear all this new music I been working on,” the hitmaker wrote on Twitter Sunday, “Working on my LEGENDARY,” he added.
Rihanna linked up with Rvssian and Di Genius last month as she continues working on her R9 album.
The Bajan pop star who is gearing up to release a Reggae/Dancehall album also followed the ace Jamaican producers on Instagram. Rih Rih has also been uploading cryptic videos in studio via her IG story.
The project which is a follow-up to Rihanna 2016’s ‘Anti‘ is expected to be released later this year. Sources revealed last year that Rihanna has 500 songs to choose from for the album.
Sources told Rolling Stone that Rihanna is working on two records – a dancehall album and a pop album. The dancehall record is said to have some of the biggest producers and singers in the genre attached to it, with the likes of R. City (Rihanna, Beyoncé), Stephen “Di Genius” McGregor (Vybz Kartel, Sean Paul), Linton “TJ Records” White (Serani, Vybz Kartel), Kranium, Chronixx, and more submitting material. One producer added Skrillex and Boi-1da had also been involved in sessions.
Producers said the star and her team had collected a large number of demos from Jamaican talent for consideration. One, who asked to remain anonymous, said: “[Rihanna’s team] have, no lie, 500 records for this project [from] different producers and writers. They’re only choosing 10 records. They’ve been having writing camps and trying to keep them quiet for almost a year and a half now. I’ve been flying to Miami, flying to L.A., cutting records nonstop for this project.”
Another source added: “Every artist, every producer, every songwriter in Jamaica or of Jamaican descent has been working on [Rihanna’s album] and has little snippets of publishing or production credits on it.” They said they thought her team had eight songs chosen “but her A&R is still asking for records.” A third source said they were looking for “one more [song].”
